OUR Youth team had to settle for a draw after twice taking the lead against Chesterfield at the weekend.

Will Peers had fired Town ahead with a free-kick but the Spireites drew level. Jack Griffin restored Town’s lead after a fine passing move, but the visitors struck again to deny Robbie Stockdale’s side a deserved win.

The young Mariners are next in action on Saturday when they travel to Hartlepool.
